Definitions
- This invention relates to a stretched blow molded vessel or stretched heat set blow molded vessel made from a linear polyarylenethioether having a melt viscosity of 3,000 to 20,000 poise, and also to a process for producing these stretched blow molded vessels.
- Polyarylenethioethers for example, poly-p-phenylenethioethers, have heat resistance which can stand the heat of steam sterilization and chemical resistance to strong acids, strong alkalis or various organic solvents, and therefore they have been expected to be useful as a material for vessels (bottles, tanks, flasks, etc.) for uses in medicine, foods and other various chemicals, if they can be molded into a shape of bottles.
- polyarylenethioethers available in the prior art involve problems such that they are poor in linearity of the molecular structure, and therefore they can be formed into vessels with difficulty or, if forcibly made into shapes of bottles, they are too brittle to stand practical use.
- a stretched blow molded vessel of a polyarylenethioether can be obtained by use of a polyarylenethioether of a linear structure having a melt viscosity of 3,000 to 20,000 poise as the starting material and carrying out injection and stretching blowing under appropriate conditions.
- the polyarylenethioether stretched blow-molded vessel according to the present invention is characterized in that it is obtained by a method comprising injection and stretching blow molding of a substantially linear polyarylenethioether having a melt viscosity of 3,000 to 20,000 poise measured at 310° C. and a shear rate of 200 s -1 .
- the process for producing the polyarylenethioether stretched blow-molded vessel comprises injecting a substantially linear polyarylenethioether having a melt viscosity of 3,000 to 20,000 poise measured at 310° C. and a shear rate of 200 s -1 into a mold of 0° to 130° C. to form a bottomed parison with an opening at an opposite end, pushing a mandrel or rod into said bottomed parison through the opening thereof to stretch the parison at a resin temperature of 80° to 150° C. in the longitudinal direction to 1.5 to 6-fold and subsequently blowing a gas into the parison at a resin temperature of 90° to 180° C. within a mold for formation of a vessel to stretch the parison in the lateral direction to 1.5 to 6-fold.
- a molding resin of a polyarylenethioether which has a certain greatness of molecular weight (3,000 to 20,000 poise in terms of melt viscosity) and is susbstantially linear
- physical properties and processability as a hollow vessel can be satisfied and, by employment of a process, in which a bottomed parison is previously molded by injection molding, and the parison is thereafter stretched first in the longitudinal direction with a rod and then in the lateral direction by blowing of a gas, a stretched hollow vessel can be produced with ease without suffering from the drawdown of the parison.
- the hollow vessel thus obtained is transparent and tough, and also excellent in heat resistance and chemical resistance.
- FIGS. 1(a), (b) and (c) are a sectional view showing the molds used in the production of a stretched blow-molded vessel in accordance with the present invention, wherein FIG. 1(a) shows injection molding for producing a bottom parison, FIG. 1(b) stretching the bottomed parison, and FIG. 1(c) blow-molding of the stretched parison.
- the blow-molded vessel according to the present invention is characterized by the use of a polymer having a structure of a polyarylenethioether (--Ar--S--) n (AR: arylene group).
- the polyarylenethioether polymer may preferably comprise a p-phenylene group as the arylene group of a p-phenylene group as the main component of the arylene group in view of heat resistance and moldability of the polymer.
- Arylene groups other than a p-phenylene group may include:
- naphthalene group ##STR6## as useful ones.
- a block copolymer containing a p-phenylene group as the main component for example, a block copolymer containing 95 to 70 mol% of the recurring units of ##STR7## in a block and 5 to 30 mol % of m-phenylene groups in a block in the chain (as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application No. 134633/1984), corresponding to U.S. application Ser. No. 748,464, filed June 25, 1985 and refiled as a continuation application Ser. No. 858,851 (filed Apr. 30, 1986) is more excellent in stretched blow moldability than poly-p-phenylenesulfide homopolymers (PPPS) and yet has mechanical properties, etc. substantially comparable to PPPS, thus being more excellent than PPPS, and therefore is particularly preferable.
- PPPS poly-p-phenylenesulfide homopolymers
- a polymer having a low melt viscosity less than 3,000 poise the thickness of a wall of the vessel may be nonuniform and breaking may occur at the thin portion, whereby stretched blowing can be done with difficulty, or even if stretched blow molding may be possible, the resultant product is undesirably mechanically fragile.
- the melt resin in the case of a polymer having a high melt viscosity in excess of 20,000 poise, the melt resin can be filled to the tip portion with difficulty during molding of a bottomed parison by injection, whereby the thickness tends to become also undesirably nonuniform.
- the polyarylenethioether to be used in the present invention is required to be substantially linear.
- a crosslinked polymer obtained by crosslinking polymerization with the use of as much as 0.1 mole or more of a crosslinking agent such as tri- or tetrachlorobenzene per 100 mols of arylene groups during polymerization, or a polymer crosslinked by high temperature treatment of the polymer in the presence of O 2 thereby having an apparent melt viscosity increased to two-fold or more is not preferable for the present invention.
- These crosslinked polymers are not preferable for the reason that stretched blow moldability is very poor during stretching blowing, or because of insufficient mechanical strength of the molded vessel, even if stretching blowing can be effected.
- the polymers crosslinked by high temperature treatment having viscosity increased are excessively colored whereby stretched blow molded products of poor transparency will be produced.
- linear polyarylenethioether satisfying the conditions of the resin of the present invention as described above can be prepared according to, for example, the two-step polymerization process wherein some quantity of water is added thereto, etc. by the present inventors in the pending patent application filed (Japanese Patent Application No. 126725/1984, corresponding to U.S. application Ser. No. 746,252, filed June 18, 1985, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,645,826).
- the polyarylenethioether as described above can be preferably used as such, but within the limit wherein no trouble is brought about in stretched blow molding, it is also possible to add inorganic fillers (silica powder, alumina powder, silica-alumina powder, mica, kaolin, calcium carbonate powder, calcium silicate powder, talc, carbon black, wollastonite, potassium titanate whisker, etc.), fibrous fillers (glass fiber, carbon fiber, etc.), crystalline nucleating agents, crystallization controllers, pigments, stabilizers, lubricants, mold release agents, etc. also, so long as no trouble is caused in stretching blow molding, it is possible to use polyarylenethioethers with different chemical structures or other thermoplastic resins blended in the resin of the present invention.
- inorganic fillers sica powder, alumina powder, silica-alumina powder, mica, kaolin, calcium carbonate powder, calcium silicate powder, talc, carbon black, wollastonite, potassium titanate whisker, etc.
- Blow molding generally comprises extruding a thermoplastic resin as a parison through an extruder, then inserting said parison into an open mold (comprising a pair of mating mold halves), closing both the mold halves to seal the ends of the parison, and at the same time blowing a high pressure gas through the opening portion to inflate the parison, thereby obtaining a vessel with a contour which is the same as the inner surface shape of the mold.
- the polyarylenethioether as the molding material has great fluidity during melting and yet small viscoelastic property, whereby the drawdown is great and molding according to the process of "parison extrusion" and then "blow molding” can be done with difficulty.
- the present invention in skilfull utilization of the very fluidity, which is high, of a polyarylenethioether, purports to melt the resin by heating to its melting point or higher and form a bottomed parison according to the injecting molding method.
- the injection mold temperature is maintained at 0° to 130° C., preferably 20° to 110° C.
- 0° C. a temperature lower than 0° C.
- the bottom parison tends to crystallize, whereby stretching can be effected insufficiently in the stretching step.
- the longitudinal stretching step is performed.
- the bottomed parison obtained is fixed at the opening portion, and a mandrel or rod is pushed into the parison from the opening portion to effect stretching in the longitudinal (axial) direction.
- the stretching ratio should preferably be within the range from 1.5 to 6-fold, particularly from 2 to 5-fold the original length. At a stretching ratio below 1.5-fold molecular orientation is insufficient and therefore through vessels can be obtained with difficulty. On the other hand, at a stretching ratio in excess of 6-fold, the bottom of the parison may be undesirably broken.
- the resin temperature of the parison during stretching should preferably be within the range from 80° to 150° C. and, for that purpose, the parison can be preheated or the rod may be heated. At a temperature lower than 80° C., stretching can be done with difficulty, while at a temperature exceeding 150° C., tough vessels can be obtained with difficulty, because only insufficient molecular orientation can be obtained even when stretched.
- the next step following the longitudinal stretching is the lateral stretching step, namely the blowing step.
- the longitudinally stretched tube is placed between mating halves of a mold for formation of a vessel, and a high pressure gas is blown thereinto, thereby effecting lateral stretching until the resin is pushed against the inner walls of said mold.
- the stretching ratio should desirably be within the range from 1.5 to 6-fold, particularly from 2 to 5-fold the original length of the tube wall. At a stretching ratio lower than 1.5-fold, molecular orientation is insufficient, whereby tough and highly transparent vessels can be obtained with difficulty. On the other hand, at a ratio exceeding 6-fold, the parison may be broken during blowing.
- the resin temperature during blowing should preferably be within the range from 90° to 180° C. and, for that purpose, the tube can be pre-heated or the blowing gas can be heated up to 180° C.
- the tube can be pre-heated or the blowing gas can be heated up to 180° C.
- stretching can be done with difficulty
- a temperature exceeding 180° C. tough and highly transparent vessels can be obtained with difficulty because molecular orientation is insufficient even if stretched.
- the blow-molded vessel thus subjected to longitudinal and lateral stretching is a transparent and tough vessel, and also excellent in heat resistance and chemical resistance.
- heat setting is effected by maintaining the vessel stretched longitudinally and laterally at a temperature of 150° to 260° C. for 1 second to 60 minutes.
- a temperature lower than 150° C. it will take a long time for heat setting so as to be disadvantageous with respect to productivity, while the resin may be undesirably melted at a temperature over 260° C. With a time shorter than 1 second, no satisfactory heat setting can be obtained, while a time over 60 minutes is disadvantageous in productivity.
- Heating may be conducted according to any desired method, but it is preferable to blow a high temperature gas from the opening portion of the molded vessel. Also, in the case of effecting heat setting within this mold, the mold may be heated, simultaneously with the blowing of a high temperature gas into the vessel in the mold.
- the vessel produced is cooled to a temperature of 150° C. or lower. Cooling may be done according to any desired method, but it is preferable to perform cooling by blowing a cooling gas lower than 150° C. from the opening portion of said vessel.
- the longitudinal stretching step can be performed within the mold for formation of a vessel, and lateral stretching can be done after a simultaneously with longitudinal stretching.
- the mold or mandrel rod to be used for injection molding, longitudinal stretching, lateral stretching and heating setting may be applied with a mold release agent such as of a silicone or a fluorinated product for easy releasing of the molded product from the mold. Further, mold release can be done with ease, if a small amount of a mold release agent is mixed into the resin.
- FIGS. 1(a) through (c) illustrate the procedure.
- FIG. 1(a) a molten mass of a resin is injected into a mold 1 by means of an injection machine 2 whereby a bottomed parison 3 is formed.
- the bottomed parison is placed in a mold 4 and stretched along its axis by means of a mandrel or bar 5 whereby a stretched bottomed parison 6 is formed.
- the stretched bottom parison is placed in mating mold havles 7 and a gas 8 is introduced into the parison to inflate the parison to assume the shape defined by the inner surface of the mold halves whereby a stretched blow-molded vessel 9 is produced.
- the stretched blow-molded product of the polyarylenethioether of the present invention is excellent in heat resistance, toughness and chemical resistance. Also, it has a great specific feature that it can be formed into a transparent article.
- the blow-molded product of the present invention which can be boiled or steam sterilized and is also transparent, would be useful for medical and food purposes. Further, since the product of the present invention is excellent in heat resistance and chemical resistance, it is useful for vessels to be used at higher temperatures and vessels for containing strong acids, strong alkalis or organic solvents.

- a small amount of the (C-2) mixture was sampled and the polymerization degree of the p-phenylenesulfide polymer, a prepolymer, was measured (by the fluorescent X-ray method) to be 220.
- a 20-liter titanium-lined polymerization autoclave was charged with 14400 g of the (C-2) mixture, 2420 g of the (D-2) mixture and 110 g of water, and the mixture was heated at 255° C. for 4 hours to react the two types of the prepolymers into a block copolymer. After the reaction, the block polymer produced was recovered from the reaction mixture. Additional one batch of polymerization was further carried out according to the same procedure, and two batches of the polymer were blended uniformly to prepared a block polymer (T-2).
- the block polymer T-2 was found by the FT-IR method to have a composition of ##STR10## units ##STR11## units of 88/12 (mol/mol), with melt viscosity being 3,500 poise.
